One of the truly elite players in college basketball during the two seasons he spent at Arizona State...After scoring 17.8 ppg as a freshman, Harden recorded 20.1 ppg, 5.6 rpg and 4.2 apg as a sophomore, proof of his tremendous all-around ability...Shoots at a very high percentage from the floor for a guard...Is ready to help an NBA team right away...Has proven capable of completely dominating a game at the offensive end...Has the type of body that NBA scouts desire, more than capable of handling the rigors of the pro game...Has a developed jumper and can score off the dribble as well...Is capable of scoring on post-up moves...Needs to cut down on the turnovers and isn`t an elite athlete, but Harden still has star potential.
